@Motep: There is not a chance in hell that I'm paying for Vista and I don't want to go to the hassle of acquiring it by "other means" and messing around trying to circumvent M$'s WGA, so that's not even an option. Also spending good money on an OS simply to "upgrade and downgrade" is out of the question.

I did not consider the cost, I am sorry. I got vista and xp disks free with this computer so I did not give it much thought.
